10.02 ACCEPTANCE OF AN HONORARIUM BY A MEMBER. No member may accept an honorarium for any service performed for an individual or organization which has a direct interest in the business of the House, including, but not limited to, registered lobbyists or any organizations they represent. The term "honorarium" does not include reimbursement for expenses incurred and actually paid by a member in performing any service.
Alleged violations of this rule shall be referred to the Committee on Ethics under Rule 6.10. Upon finding that an honorarium was accepted in violation of this rule, the Committee on Ethics shall direct the return of the funds. If the funds are not returned, the committee may recommend disciplinary action under Rule 6.10.
